Ideas

I will try to list down some nice ideas and related issues which I heard of:

---- Putting wind turbines over the trains: - Won't the wind resistance increase and hence the speed decrease because of this. I think it will definitely cause the energy to be drained from the trains.

---- Giving some sort of locating device over the TV remote: This will make the remotes costlier and may not seem as a good idea to those who are quite methodical bcoz they will always know where the remote is but this shd come as a huge relief for bachelors

---- Palm/Finger print enabled door opening device: This device will have the functionality to open automatically if the person whose Palm/Finger print has been entered into device's database. Actually it will try to match the print as soon as somebody touches the device, it will match it with the database and based on match it will open the door. IT ALREADY EXISTS IN MOVIES, I guess. Drawback: Ppl will have to take off gloves.

----- Presenting holographic image of the person standing on the door. This will take the holographic technology to the homes and will make the door alarms/viewers too costly but it will be for the higher levels.

----- Making a rules engine for comparing two excel files. This is a tool where a repetitive taks of reconciliation of two excel file will be done. One needs to define which cells/rows needs to be compared and the difference may be written in a third excel file. This software must be there somewhere already.

----- Giving a coating of non-inflammable layer on the carriers of inflammable products. What may be different here may be the layering. Probably teh carriers need to have two walls and between the walls there should be a non-inflammable gas or liquid in between the two walls.

----- Converting Sound Energy to Electrical/Mechanical Energy. We should try to capture the noise pollution being generated by ever increasing traffic on roads and try to put this energy to some good use, may be to lighting the streets or running something which can absorb CO2 or SO2 etc.
